Ray touched her head and applied his healing skill, relieving so of her pain with a smile on his face.
"This girl is interesting," he muttered, a smile still lingering.
If she hadn't awakened, he would have had no use for her—he wasn't running a charity to take people in. But with her awakening and judging by her pained expression, it was likely an A-class or even S-class skill.
She could definitely beco his subordinate, or perhaps even his lover.
Elsha was still writhing in pain.
Although her skin had so burns, the more terrifying pain ca from her head as a vast amount of information rapidly flooded her mind.
Her consciousness seed to slip away with every piece of information her brain automatically processed, and it wasn't subsiding at all.
No matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't handle all this information.
At that mont, she felt a warm hand on her, providing much-needed relief.
The burning pain in her body began to fade, but the overwhelming flood of information continued to assault her consciousness.
While her external wounds were healing, the clarity in her mind instead made her more focused on the information that was directly being implanted in her head, causing the comprehension of the information to accelerate, intensifying the tearing pain in her head.
"Ahhhh—"
Elsha scread at the top of her lungs. Veins bulged on her forehead as the agony surged, and even the warmth of the hand couldn't alleviate her suffering. She felt utterly helpless.
One by one, her mories seed to slip away, as if they had never existed, and her very sense of existence began to fade.
mory, without it, is equivalent to dying; a person cannot be themselves without their mories. Although this vast influx of information didn't harm Elsha directly, it replaced all her mories with its overwhelming content.
"Hmm?" Ray observed Elsha's miserable state with a frown. "Even Yuna's pain was relieved by my healing skill, but she's still suffering."
Confusion flickered across his face as he studied her again, touching his chin thoughtfully.
"Either way, I can't let her die. She's really lucky to have t —if she had Awakened alone, she would have likely died."
"Status."

He focused on the Healer skill, and a new prompt appeared in front of him. Ray envisioned pressing "yes" in his mind almost imdiately.
The mutation energy in his body drained slightly, but compared to his vast reserve, this amount was negligible.
"Eighty?" he muttered as new information flooded his mind, mostly teaching him about the uses of his mutation energy.
"I... I didn't know mutation energy could be used like this."
Ray quickly sensed his own mutation energy.
Although there seed to be no visible change, a subtle transformation had occurred, granting his energy a new attribute provided by the advanced skill.
One couldn't simply manipulate mutation energy without the specified skills, and even if they could, without the attributes that drive invisible changes in the mutation energy, it wouldn't work, even if everything was copied.
As Ray sifted through the new information, he felt a sense of satisfaction, but when he looked at Elsha, it was clear that his efforts hadn't been the cure.
His Healer skill at Awakening II could cure all diseases and even reattach a decapitated body part as long as it hadn't been too long. Yet, this situation was different.
Ray focused on Elsha again, using his Analyser skill to examine her brain closely.
"As expected, the problem is in her mind," he murmured.
The Analyser skill needed to be looked at specific parts individually if he wanted information even with his ntal strength, it was incredibly complex and only so simple information could be successfully understood by him.
"It seems like she can't handle the information overload," Ray noted. He walked up to her and used his skill again. As he anticipated, the pain was alleviated, but the issue was deeper than just physical pain.
"Sigh, do I really need to advance my skill again?" he grumbled internally, a pained expression crossing his face as he considered upgrading the skill further.
"400?" Ray grumbled in frustration. This was just a C-class skill, and the cost of the second advancent was already so high, reaching III in Healer skill.
It was frustrating considering that it only took him about 600 mutation energy to reach the IV advancent of his Body-strengthening skill, yet this C-class skill already needed the equivalent already for III.
As he grumbled, Ray advanced his skill anyway. Another set of information flooded his mind, entirely different from before. The mutation energy in his body also altered, gaining a new attribute while slightly decreasing.
As Ray sifted through the new information, he paused at one of the thods he had gained.
There were five thods: Soul Healing, Self Heal, Transfer Pain, Transfer Heal, and Overheal.
Obviously, this thing was not as simple as it was nad to be. For example, Self Heal could basically give him regeneration even in mid-battle, and not only for light wounds; even large wounds and decapitation could still be healed if he was given a little ti.
Ray looked at her again and used one of the thods that would likely be useful for her: Soul Healing.
First, Ray made a swirling motion with his finger in the air, then made a star in the circle while the mutation energy in his body slowly drained away.
A symbol of a blue flower appeared on his forehead, and the carved circle materialised around Elsha, neatly shining with a blue light. Ray's mutation energy was rapidly draining.
Imdiately, Elsha's expression softened, and she stopped screaming. After a few minutes, the veins in her head disappeared.
"Has she awakened an S-class skill?"
Ray looked at the single bit of mutation energy in her body with his Analyser skill again and imdiately froze on the spot.
